A STEP FORWARD!
Business as II Should be Done-One
Price Marked In Plain Figures.

l. A. Feibel announces the Inaugural.
ton of the one-price system and strict
adherence to it.
Convinced that the true theory of
business is one price for every article,
and that price marked in plain figures,
| am rapidly re.marking all goods in my
store. Many articles are already remark
ed, and all will soon be finished. The
marked price will always be the asking
price and the taking price. This one
price will be as low as the same goods
can be bought any where, and will be
determined solely on the value of the
goods, with sincere desire to give every
purchaser the full value for his money.
The one price system wherever adopt
ed and carried out has proven pre.emi-
nently successful.
By this plan all customers are treated
exactly alike and every one has an equal
advantage. BY this system time is saved,
and expenses are cut down, for the deal
er can sell cheaper than when half his
time is spent in chaffering, and dicker-
ing about price.
To inaugurate and carry out this plan
in Hillsboro, I ask the cooperation of
every fair-minded buyer.
Remember the plan: Every article of
Clothing, Boots, Shoes, Hats, Caps, and
Gentlemen's Furnishing Goods in my
immense stock will have its price mark.
ed upon it in plain figures. Any one
can buy it at that price and no one at
any other. There will be no deviation
and no evasion, no giving presents or
throwing in" but the price will always
be so low that no concession can be
asked. Every buyer, young or old, rich
or poor, can depend upon having the
same fair and honest treatment. NV
stock will be closely watched, and when
the price marked ON any article can be
reduced it will be done at once and re-
marked in red ink. Positively no re-
duction from the marked price will be
made under any circumstances.
Thankful for the patronage given me
in the past, trust my old friends and
many new ones will give my new de-
parture a fair trial and their warm ap-
proval. Come in, look at my goods, ex-
anime my prices, consult your best in.
terests, and use your best judgment as
to the prices. I. A. FE1BEI..

Beard or Health,

Our statemsntis1as week relating tc
the action Of the Board of Health--in
removing hog pens--was not quite cor.
rect, as we are now informed. The
Board has not banished the pigs from
the corporation, except from places
where they are to be found nuisances.
The most important action taken was
to order thorough and immediate clean
ing of all private premises, including pig
pens. stables, privies, back and front
yards; requiring the sanitary policeman,
Mr.. Thos. link, to inspect all premises
at once, and to see that the order is en-.
forced. 1t is surprising that so many
people will permit themselves to live
surrounded by filth until compelled to
remove it by law. The Board has de.
termined that hot weather shall not find
Hillsboro unprepared for the half dozen
epidemics now present in different parts
of the country.
The sanitary policeman is required to
order all nuisances wherever found to
be removed within a certain time. Any
property holder failing to comply with
an order of the Board and permitting
the existence of nuisance on his prem.
ises, not only subjects his property to
liability for the costs of removing the
nuisance but himself to arrest and pen
atty. Under these circumstances il
wouldn't be bad idea for each man OF
woman holding property in town to clean
up at once and avoid second visit from
the authorities.
III is more than probable that the Board
of Health will pass regulations concern
ing the building and cleaning of privy
vaults very something much need
ed, inasmuch as most of our diseases in
Hillsboro are known to be directly trac'
able to filthy or defective privy vaults
and kitchen sinks. -.

Citizens Temperance Meeting.

In the last issue of the NEWS. HERALD
dignified and numerously signed call
for public meeting appeared. In pur-
suance to the call and in spite of ex-
tremely unfavorable weather fair au-
dience of representative citizens gather.
ed in the City Hall Saturday night. The
Drum Corps, in public spirited man
ner, donated their service to remind the
people of the meeting with the lively
sound of fife and drum, but the elements
were against them. The violent gusts
of wind dissipated the sound and de-
stroyed the effect. 1t is hoped that the
Drum Corps will repeat its kindness on
q more favorable occasion.
On motion Of DIR. McSurely, Hon.
James H. Thompson was called to the
chair. d. w. Clark was chosen Secre-
tary. After prayer by Mr.. Clark, Judge
Thompson addressed the meeting. A
more appropriate initial speech could
hardly have been made. Itwas compre.
hensive of the present issue, clear and
conclusive. DR.. McSurely followed in a
crisp and forcible speech. These ad.
dresses were both interrupted by hearty
and frequent applause, showing the
already quickened state of public senti-
ment.
DR.. Mcsurely, Rev. D. w. Clark and

should their previous engagement pre-
